RPG: The Divine Deconstructor

Chapter 46: Chapter 46: King Shura’s Body

Map of the Demon King’s golden body : Special prop

Intro: The location of King Shura — one of the twelve helpers of the Demon Saint.

The golden body of the Demon King!

Although Jiang Ming wasn’t sure what it was, he knew that this was important to him as it mentioned the Demon Saint.

He had a feeling that parts of the inheritance mission would be to look for the location of the Demon King’s golden body. Well, of course, this was just a speculation, but just to be sure, he decided to buy the map from Mu Baiting.

“President TK, I want this map, but I don’t have any equipment to offer now. Would it be okay if I owe you one silver equipment for now?” Jiang Ming asked Mu Baiting.

Mu Baiting nodded his head and smiled. “Sure.”

“Thank you. I actually wanted to ask, since you have this map, why don’t you use it for yourself?” When Jiang Ming took the map from Mu Baiting, he couldn’t help but ask.

“I don’t even know who King Asura is. Plus, I’m thinking of joining the holy faction and so I’m not that interested in the stuff from the demon faction. Also, I think the location that was marked in the map is a place with level 80 monsters. I can’t even cross the river as of now and even if I managed to do that, I might be killed immediately. It just isn’t worth the risk,” Mu Baiting replied.

“Hmm, that’s true.” Jiang Ming nodded his head.

Then, Jin Tian who was quiet the entire time suddenly asked, “Misty River, would you consider selling the store? Give me a number, I’ll buy it.”

A wry smile appeared on Mu Baiting’s face as well and he said, “Actually, I wanted to ask you the same question.”

Selling the store?

Jiang Ming narrowed his eyes as he thought about their question. He had a total of three stores in the Marketplace. One was the premium store and the other two were just ordinary stores. His initial plan was to wait for the prices to go up so that he’d sell it at a much higher price, but since both of them were asking about it, he decided to give it a thought.

“Actually, I bought this store so that I had a place to sell my equipment. But since both of you are interested and I am short of money, I can sell it to you. As for the price…” Jiang Ming replied.

“Two hundred thousand dragon coins,” Mu Baiting said.

“Two hundred and fifty thousand dragon coins.” Jin Tian followed.

Jiang Ming was attracted by the price that they offered, but he shook his head as he still wasn’t satisfied.

Ever since Divine Land started, there were about millions of players in the game and this was only in Hualong. In order words, the game was like a second world. Therefore, it could be said that the real estate pricing in the game was similar to reality. Plus, even if he wasn’t planning to do any business with the store, he could rent it and would still earn quite an amount.

Given the location and the size of his store, the rent would cost about ten thousand yuan each month. A year’s rent would be about 120 thousand yuan and 240 thousand for two years. It was estimated that the game would at least last for ten years, which meant that he would earn a total of 1.2 million yuan. Even if the game got abandoned in the end, he could still sell it back to the system with one-fifth of its price.

If you count it this way, the price that the both of them offered was actually not that much. Plus, once the trading system was activated, the price would at least be doubled.

When they saw Jiang Ming shaking his head, both of them showed a bitter smile. Although they were both presidents of guilds and had tons of money, all the money would have to be invested into the game into the later part. If they used up too much now, it might ruin their plan in the future. Therefore, they still had to consider it thoroughly before making the decision.

“How about this, I’ll sell it at 450 thousand to both of you and each of you gets one floor or I’ll sell it for 200 thousand to either one of you, but I want 30% of the shares. What do you think?” Jiang Ming folded his arms as he looked at the two of them.

“You’re nasty!”

Jin Tian and Mu Baiting said almost simultaneously after looking at each other.

30% shares would mean that they had to give Jiang Ming 30 yuan at every 100 yuan the store earned. In other words, it meant that the more the shop made, the more money Jiang Ming would get and as time went by, the money that he earned from the shares would be enough for him to buy a few more stores.

“I don’t want it then. I’ll talk to you guys later, I have to go.” It was obvious that Mu Baiting wasn’t happy with Jiang Ming’s offer. He bid farewell to them both and walked out with his bodyguard Mo Yi while shaking his head.

Mu Baiting left but Jin Tian was still in the store. He was smiling at Jiang Ming as he said, “I’ll buy the store for 200 thousand and I’ll give you 20% of the shares, but you have to promise me that you’ll bring some good equipment here and help me promote my store. How about that?”

“I can help with promoting the store, but as for the shares, I want 30%” Jiang Ming knew that Jin Tian already figured out who he was and saw the potential in him which was why he stayed to bargain. Jin Tian knew that once Jiang Ming’s identity got exposed or if he became even more famous in the future, his influence would be much bigger than any celebrities out there. This was the potential that Jin Tian saw in Jiang Ming.

“30% is too much. 25%. Take it or leave it.” Jin Tian frowned as he shook his head.

“You’re smart!” Jiang Ming stared at Jin Tian.

“You’re smarter!” Jin Tian replied.

“I look forward to working with you!”

“Me too!”

…

When he left the Marketplace, it had already been 28 minutes and there were just 2 minutes left before the second floor got activated and the zombies on the first floor were refreshed.

Jiang Ming took a look at the digital contract that Jin Tain sent to him and along with the extra 200 thousand in his bank account, a huge smile appeared on his face.

With all the money that he earned from selling the equipment and the store, he had a total of 370 thousand yuan which was already more than enough for his sister’s tuition fee. This, in fact, was the reason why he was so happy.

“They’re right, you do earn a lot more if you’re a solo player. No wonder those who do cosplay of the top players in the game would earn so much money. I guess that once you become stronger, the resources that you get would increase as well.”

Jiang Ming muttered to himself after keeping the contract into his inventory.

Before this, he was a professional player that was signed by a guild and he only got a fixed salary and bonus each year. As for the amount of revenues that he made for his guild, the only ones who knew would be the company executives. Now that he had just started the game and with his abilities, he was always one step ahead of the others in getting the resources which was why he was able to make such fortune over the span of a few days.

“I guess I’m bound to be a solo player in Divine Land because of the Possession of the Jinx. It’s a good thing actually, at least I wouldn’t be betrayed.”

“Dongdong~~”

Just as he finished his sentence, the bell on top of the Death Bell Tower rang and the door to the second floor opened. At the same time, a giant group of zombies appeared behind him. Jiang Ming immediately went onto the second floor because he was surrounded by the zombies.

Once he entered the second floor, a system announcement rang in his ears and after hearing it, his face turned dark.
